Hi all 👋🏻

Today I want to share with you some **Black & White photographs** I took in **RONDA Spain on 25 June 2016**. They are “my entry for the #monomad challenge" all photographs are taken with my (late) Canon eos 550D with 18 - 135 mm lens.

Let’s start with this Photograph:
![df07a26f_6480_4425_b32f_33dcb5f80fd0.jpeg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmVoaavuqR5PXYBjv4t3ZcwLEwngiMasXXRiNeYKWNQJpp/df07a26f_6480_4425_b32f_33dcb5f80fd0.jpeg)
It was just a moment, when lots was happening around this statue… have a look closely and truly see. 
This photograph so **represents Spain 🇪🇸 The bull. The masculinity**… look at all the guys gathered around. (Even in the back left) And the horse just peaking in. 
It tells such a story, and I’m glad I captured “that” moment. Do you see it? 

Next I want to show you one of Ronda’s most famous things. The bridge: with some artistic license 😎

You see here **Puente Nuevo de Ronda** - basically called the new bridge. Although it’s from the 18th century.

I’m not showing you today it’s entirety… as I’m planning to write a larger post about the city of Ronda and my walk through it… in due course, with photographs in colour. So if you are **curious** and want to learn more about Ronda, keep an eye out for it 😉

Even here… it is much taller than is visible. But still it gives you a great view of the bridge.

Let me show you a fountain, found in Plaza del Socorro.

Beautiful statues with lions 🦁 🦁

Wandering around we see these views with high mountains in the background. Do note, Ronda is high up too itself 🤓

In the park of Ronda I found some benches in the shade… they were so welcome on this hot summer day. 
![3daa075a_4de1_4b4d_8ae3_a3d921ea9a2d.jpeg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmVag33UsZ3EiLyD4WWeZsobemqs6RKqddgocwkMxyRNqW/3daa075a_4de1_4b4d_8ae3_a3d921ea9a2d.jpeg)

And wandering through small alleyways I found a spring in a corner, that can easily be missed. It has above it this metal flower. 
![06a0ecee_9fd4_4aff_90fe_b5f662d6ab66.jpeg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmQu9prwaMeW6jp1fQENbFmo5XFJFx6XcejjE2Gxzat4i1/06a0ecee_9fd4_4aff_90fe_b5f662d6ab66.jpeg)

Hope you got a small taste of Ronda through my photographs today.
